Teacher of Economics

Applications are welcome from graduates/ECTs or experienced Economics teachers to become a key member of our Business and Economics department at Emanuel School.

The success of our Business and Economics department at Emanuel School is down to the combination of specialist teachers with a deep knowledge and love of their subject and motivated pupils with high aspirations.

As Teacher of Economics, you will play a key role challenging, engaging and inspiring our pupils to achieve their full potential in Economics.

As well as delivering excellent classroom teaching, all staff at Emanuel undertake a pastoral role (as a form tutor, or as a co-tutor if an ECT) and get involved in the wider life of the school through co-curricular activities and outreach programmes.

The role would suit a teacher who can deliver enthusiastic and engaging teaching, inspiring our pupils to fulfil their potential in Economics. The ability to also teach Business would be regarded as an advantage.

We welcome applications from ECTs and would also be prepared to provide teacher training for the right candidate who would like to make the move into teaching, subject to a satisfactory probationary period with us.

Working at Emanuel

There is a genuine buzz at the school. Colleagues enjoy their work and, like the pupils, are ambitious for the school.

Everyone works hard here, and anyone joining the school should expect to do so. There's a strong sense of community and source of friendship. From the briefing to all staff, to the half termly staff meetings, termly consultative group meetings and a common room committee, there's ongoing dialogue about the school's aims.

We aim to look after our staff too. We have an appraisal scheme with a focus on the employee's professional development; we sponsor postgraduate courses and a range of training opportunities; we offer a healthcare plan via Simply Health that includes counselling and medical support; and we're committed to supporting staff wellbeing. On a more practical level, all staff benefit from good pension provision and free lunches.
